Tableware Guaranteed to Spice Up Your Next Dinner Party

As magazine editors, we attend our fair share of extravagant launch parties for new products. Some lure us in with promises of great food, or an exciting celebrity partnership, others are can't-miss products we know everyone will be talking about in the next few months. But last month, we attended an event that's still on our minds weeks later. Department of Decoration, a new company from the team behind Flat Vernacular, launched their first collection—antique dishes and silverware dipped in an FDA-approved, food-safe coat of powder—with help from a Spring Street Social Society, a secret, members-only society. Those invited to the launch weren't told the location of the event until the day of, and aside from the long tables set in the new collection, there were knife-throwing performances, jugglers, an a cappella group, and even an interactive art piece.

Thankfully, the star of the show—the new products—didn't disappoint. The flatware is available in a variety of colors, and can be mixed and matched to create a truly unique-looking dinner table. Guests passed around their silver so everyone could see the full range, and as each dish was served, oohed and ahhed over the wide variety of pieces. The dinnerware is a guaranteed conversation starter, and we can't wait to see who throws the next fantastic party with this eye-catching collection.
